The Ballet in Budapest
Whilst on your city break holiday in Hungary, we invite you to experience the magic aura surrounding the Budapest opera & ballet and enjoy the enthralling voices of our favourite operatic singers and the vibrant performances of world class ballet dancers. Almost every evening the curtains rise to transfer the spectators to the surprising world created on the stage by talents of the performers, composer and conductor.
The established concert season in Budapest is from late September to early June, but some of the best opera and ballet can be seen at the height of the season, in the Summer Opera and Ballet Festival. The fabulous State Opera House is the showpiece venue where the Hungarian State Opera perform. There are also outdoor concerts at Hilton Dominican Court and the Basilica of St Stephan. The various music, opera and ballet events take place under the umbrella title of BudaFest Summer Festival, and keynote events at the Opera House are usually programmed for August.
